[epilepsy] Advice on switching from Trileptal to Tegretol please

 

Hi. My daughter has been on Trileptal for about 3 months now. This is her
first medication that she has been on. The doctor first prescribed her to go on
Tegretol because I do not have coverage for Trileptal. Because of what I read
about side effects on Tregretol, I chose to put her on Trileptal anyway. I
cannot afford it. The doctor said that if she goes on Tegretol now and if she
does have side effects then he can put her back on Trileptal and the government
should pay for it. But if she does not try the Tegretol there is no chance of
any coverage. Has anyone switched from Trileptal to Tegretal before? Does
anyone have any advice please? Thankyou.
Cristin
